president morsi spoke to egyptians yesterday. that does not seem to have squashed the outrage as well. what are they demanding? >> well, there's two central points to the demands of the protestors now outside the presidential palace. the constitution that is now scheduled to be voted on december a15th they argue doesnt represent all egyptians. they say it was drafts by parties that's not inclusive and not clear and mediocre. they want a constitution more inclusive and represents all egyptians. the problem is they don't have enough time to drive home a new consensus or draft constitution. that's why they're demanding president morsi delay the vote. the other thing that triggered all the protests two weeks ago he issued a decree that gave himself absolute powers. essentially the ability to make laws above judicial review. they want that decision as well immediately revoked by the president so they don't feel this country is going back to a dictatorship like they fought for two years ago. >> thanks always, sir. do appreciate that. >

how much more trouble is morsi in there? >> reporter: well, he's definitely politically isolated because all of egypt's major political factions have really come out against him for both the constitutional decree that gave him absolute powers nearly two weeks ago and kicked off all of these protests, but more importantly, they're very upset with him that he's trying to ram home this constitution that was drafted by an assembly made up mostly of islamist parties loyal to the president within just two weeks. so, that's fueled a lot of the street anger, left six people killed. it also brought out the military outside of the presidential palace. today, the opposition is calling for another million man march. no doubt, though, that the president's politically isolated and under mounting public pressure. mika? >> let's go back to syria. you've been following that situation since it began last year. assad's grip obviously slipping, but what about the potential of the use of chemical weapons on his own people? >> reporter: well, the
